    - Does the VSX we get in India is VSX 2 or just VSX ?

    Yes! VSX 2T is better than Motul MotoMix. The problem with MotoMix is that it doesn't burn clean. I noticed a layer of gunk on the squish when i took apart the head for cleaning! Shell VSX is really good i was using it as premix till now. Will be using with Autolube soon now that i have a working pump.

    Shell bunks could arrange 2t oil if one is willing to buy bulk 2t pack, say for example a dozen container pack. But of one wants just a litre or half a litre pack then its hard to source.

    Motul Motomix is ok for normal use like BPCL's Mak 2t.

    I used to use Castrol Jettx on my 88' Yamaha RX 100, since Castrol have stopped selling synthetic based 2t oil and replaced with Castrol Go 2t plus most sellers stopped keeping stock of 2t oils, I have come across in using other 2t oils like Pennzoil 2t, Shell VSX 2t, Mak 2t, Motul Motomix 2t & finally got hands into Total Elf Moto2 Champ.

    Pennzoil 2t sold in India is Mineral based just like Castrol Go 2t & Motul Motomix 2t. (Mineral based are ok for normal usage but emits more smoke)
    The best 2t that I used was Shell VSX which is Synthetic based, smoke is lesser compared to Mak 2t but better than Castrol.

    Now have filled my RX's 2t tank with Elf Moto2 Champ. Will update after riding few hundred kms. Click image for larger version

    If there is exactly 1Lt of petrol & 40ml of 2-T oil thorougly mixed in the tank, then whether or not you rip, the oil is bound to get finished when the petrol gets finished. So engine gets the same treatment all the time.




    The 2 stroke oil
    is bound to finish sooner the more you are riding at higher RPM. This is exactly what the engine should get to avoid seizure. It may also sieze if the pump stops, hence it is always recommended to pull the pipe out of the carb & open the throttle to see if the 2-T oil is flowing or not. I do this check everytime is take my RXs for a long ride. Its been11Yrs now & till date i have had no issues with my RX.

    Hello can you please tell me if who can import 510 & 710 oil with pricing?

    Incredibly hard to get and very expensive too.You're better off with a Motul MotoMix oil - Not as good as the 800,but available everywhere and better than most.I think the 800 is available online.But with a slight price hike.

    Anyone in and around Pune can PM me if they want the same...

    P.S. I am NOT trying to make any profit or anything... Just trying to help in getting the best 2T Oil for Yamaha RX 100...

    Ideally how long should 1ltr 2t oil last on the side can on an stock rx135 4speed. It's been ridden 400km since I filled and most of it are highway runs speeds across 70-80kmph, the oil tank is just less than half empty.
    Should I increase the oil flow in pump??.
    Thanks
    Ideally one litre of petrol has to be mixed with 30 ml/40 ml of 2T oil. So, one litre of 2T should be sufficient for about 33-25 litres of petrol respectively.

    Hi All,
    I got 2 bottles (500ml X 2) of Shell Advance VSX 2T (Green Bottles) for Rs.300 (150X2=300) from Shell petrol pump in Kasarwadi Pune today...
    Have been using only Castrol Jettx in my Yamaha RX 100 for the last 17 years...
    Still have about 500ml of Jettx left in the oil tank...

    Hope the comments were useful
    Mine too..
    22 years and the pump still works magnificently..

    By the way, I have a transparent pipe which connects the oil pump to the carburettor.. (visibility helps)

    I always use a little amount of premix for safety measures. (still have minimal smoke from the exhaust)
